My reupholstered chair

annsixty. Your chair looks lovely and has inspired me to have my two Parker Knoll, Penhurst chairs, re-upholstered.

I thoroughly recommend it, Day6. I dread to think what that chair would cost if I’d bought a new one and it would have broken my heart to get rid of Mum’s “ladies” chair. It cost me £280 including the fabric to have it restored.

What a wonderful job he has done Annsixty the colour is lovely please enjoy your comfy new chair.x

That looks lovely annsixty. It makes such sense to preserve well-made furniture rather than buy new. I love the colour.

Yours is gorgeous too Shoequeen.

I think you have both convinced me to get my small old fashioned brown tapestry-like fabric suite recovered and up-dated, because it is very supportive and comfortable. I have never used it really. (I bought the almost un-used small but solid sofa and two armchairs on Ebay almost ten years ago - very cheaply - for my summer-house, and had visions of covering them in blue-ish stripey deck chair fabric to make a sort of summery beach hut look in there, but it never happened, due to a number of health issues over the years. The suite, covered in stuff dumped in there, faded in the sun-light.) Now I need a suite for a second sitting room we've gained in our forever home, so you ladies have convinced me to waste-not, want-not and up-cycle that upright comfy suite I have never used!

What a lovely vibrant colour and the cushion is perfect.

I’ve done the same. I absolutely love it, not least because it was my mum’s.

Beautiful. Quality speaks for itself.

Beautiful, enjoy every moment you have to sit in it!

Fantastic, it is a tragedy to see so much furniture going to landfill.

That's lovely! Money well spent.

Lovely, I like the colour too.

That looks lovely, annsixty and very inviting.

So satisfying isn't it. I did a similar thing with my 1930s settee. What a difference. Now I want to get everything reupholstered!
Your chair is very nice.

Looks fabulous, ann.

That’s lovely Annsixty. It looks so comfortable and the colour is spot on. Bet you’re glad you had it done.

Oh what a lovely chair annsixty . My first ever suite was a similar shade . I hope you get many years of enjoyment from it . You deserve it x

That's a lovely colour.
I hope you have many a happy hour sitting in it, ann.
